So I finally managed to COLOR something... this is my main character, cyrus, in color. You'll recognize him. I made this from that pose I uploaded here, heh.
I also made one other furc portrait before. But I won't unveil that one until I make an entire set >_>
I don't know if I EVER will! yeegh...
This portrait IS remappable, but I decided not to drop the unremapped version here because it's soooo tantalizingly easy to yank.
"A locked door only keeps an honest man honest," sure, but an unlocked door provides an honest man an opportunity to start down that slippery slope to degeneracy.
Sorry I don't have much else :

i hate to disappoint you... : the background I rendered in bryce though. I DID render it, but that's nothing special.
it was converted to furcadia's 230 color format by a setting in Photoshop that also dithers the colors so they blend to new shades. Cyrus, the subject, was the only thing I really MADE in the picture...
And the way furcadia portraits work is, they're remappable. You have several color tones of eight shades each, one for fur, one for markings, one for shirt, one for pants, one for bracers, one for cape, one for boots, and one single solid-color each for Eyes and a "badge". Then furcadia fills in the colors you chose for your character on the necessary places.
It's sort of like I gave it a color-by-numbers sheet, but down to the level of not only which colors go where, but which shades. If I tried to color something else in that method, using the ACTUAL colors and not the "insert here" remappable colors of furcadia, I.. maybe could. but I don't know how good it would turn out. i'd have to try. but inking something is ... surprisingly hard >.< doesn't help that I use a trackball mouse.
